- Gatsby meets Daisy’s daughter
- Daisy suggests to go to New york
- Tension between Gatsby and Tom rises
- Gatsby’s first interaction with Daisy’s child, Pammy, was one that was very surprising. Gatsby was very shocked at seeing the child walking, talking and being around them because it solidified that Daisy and Tom’s relationship was real. Gatsby had denied it for so long because he always thought Daisy and Tom were not meant for each other.
- The challenging love for Daisy
- Description: Daisy suggests to everyone that they should go to New York to try to lighten up the tension and have some fun. However, the tension between Gatsby,Tom, and Daisy continued rising as the heat did.
- Myrtle dies
- Description: Once Daisy had called Gatsby to over to her house for lunch, the tension between Gatsby and Tom get very awkward and confrontational. Upon leaving for New York, Tom offers that he takes Gatsby’s car and Tom takes his as a way to belittle Gatsby. Tom suggests “Well you take my coupé and let me drive your car to town…This suggestion was distasteful to Gatsby”(Fitzgerald 121). This interaction amplifies the tension between the two men, and Daisy being in the middle of them creates agitation for all of the characters.
- Gatsby covers up for Daisy
- Gatsby challenged Tom’s love for Daisy, as the the three of them get into a verbal confrontation of who Daisy has loved most. Gatsby asks Daisy to confess that she never loved Tom, but Daisy “Even alone can’t say [she] never loved Tom” (Fitzgerald 133). This shows the sorrow that Daisy feels when she realizes that a future with Gatsby hasn’t always been attainable.
- When Gatsby’s car approaches the garage, coming out of nowhere myrtle runs into the road thinking it was Tom. After fighting with George, Myrtle runs out of the house after yelling at him and calling him a coward. The aftermath of the accident showed that the “Car passed down the road, going faster’n forty. Going fifty, sixty” (Fitzgerald 139). The irony of the death of myrtle was very evident because she ran in front of Gatsby's car, believing that Tom was driving, and was killed by Daisy, Tom's wife.
- Gatsby covers up for Daisy being the one driving when Myrtle dies. This demonstrates his deep love for Daisy and how his selflessness shines throughout this incident. His immediate reaction was to not feel bad for Myrtle but to take the blame for Myrtle.
